The ceiling has 2 black, 2 red, and 2 white wires. The ceiling fan has 1 black, 1 blue, 1 white, and 1 green wire. The red wires in the ceiling weren't being used. The previous lighting fixture was 4 lights with no ceiling fan. I can control the fixture from 2 separate outlets. I wired the black and blue from the ceiling fan to the black 2 wires in the ceiling......"4 wires together. I wired the white from the ceiling fan to the 2 in the ceiling.....3 together. Nothing on the red. The breaker trips when i turn the switch on. I'm not eletrically inclined and it's obvious it's not wired correctly. Any help would be appreciated.
